EPA, Logeist Group to Engage Amansie Central Communities on Reclamation Project

October 17, 2025 

The Environmental Protection Authority (EPA) and Logeist Group Ltd. will hold a crucial community engagement forum on Friday, October 24, 2025, to discuss a major reclamation project planned for the Amansie Central district.

The public forum, scheduled for 10:00 AM at the Gyaman Nkwanta Durbar Grounds, will bring together community members, landowners, and stakeholders to discuss the scope, environmental impact, and potential benefits of the reclamation initiative.

High-Profile Leadership

The engagement will be chaired by Prof. Nana Ama Prswne-Khuste, whose presence signals the significance of community input in the environmental planning process. The involvement of traditional leadership and academic expertise is expected to facilitate meaningful dialogue between project developers and affected communities.

What's at Stake

Reclamation projects typically focus on restoring land degraded by mining, industrial activity, or other environmental disturbances. In mining-intensive regions like Amansie Central, such initiatives are critical for returning land to productive and sustainable use.

The forum will provide residents with an opportunity to:

  • Understand the full scope of the reclamation project
  • Ask questions about environmental and social impacts
  • Voice concerns and provide input on project implementation
  • Learn about potential economic benefits for the community

Community Participation Urged

Project organizers are calling for maximum participation from all stakeholders, including farmers, business owners, traditional authorities, and concerned citizens whose lives and livelihoods may be affected by the reclamation work.

The meeting represents a vital platform for transparency and accountability, allowing community members to shape how the project unfolds in their district.
